AV-MaskEnhancer: Enhancing Video Representations through Audio-Visual Masked Autoencoder
share
Learning high-quality video representation has shown significant applications in computer vision and remains challenging. Previous work based on mask autoencoders such as ImageMAE and VideoMAE has proven the effectiveness of learning representations in images and videos through reconstruction strategy in the visual modality. However, these models exhibit inherent limitations, particularly in scenarios where extracting features solely from the visual modality proves challenging, such as when dealing with low-resolution and blurry original videos. Based on this, we propose AV-MaskEnhancer for learning high-quality video representation by combining visual and audio information. Our approach addresses the challenge by demonstrating the complementary nature of audio and video features in cross-modality content. Moreover, our result of the video classification task on the UCF101 dataset outperforms the existing work and reaches the state-of-the-art, with a top-1 accuracy of 98.8 top-5 accuracy of 99.9
